If you’re experiencing harassment, you should report it to your employer’s HR department or another designated authority according to your company’s policies. You should always report in writing. It is very important that you specifically mention that you are suffering (age, race, gender, religion, national origin, sexual orientation, disability, or other protected class) discrimination when you make the written complaint. The more details you provide the better.
If the harassment continues or is not adequately addressed, you may consider filing a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), Kentucky Commission on Human Rights, or Ohio Civil Rights Commission. However, before you file a complaint with an external agency you should discuss this with an experienced employment attorney. Filing an external complaint has pros and cons.
